The replay value for it will be huge, after all its the spiritual successor to Baldurs Gate.

I expect nothing but perfection!

I was looking at some of the class structures for this game and they seem pretty epic too. You start out choosing between 3 different base classes, warrior, rogue, and mage. Then as you go through the game, based on your play style and choices new specialized class options become available. There is also suppose to be tons of endings. I think the replay value of this game is through the roof :)

Apparently depending on how you choose to play one of your companions can be a boss if you play it differently. That's amazing!!!

It's true that this game will only be single player, but I think all the future dragon age titles will be multi. Bioware had this to say about multiplayer

Is Dragon Age: Origins a multiplayer game? (Back to top)

Dragon Age: Origins delivers a focused, single-player RPG experience. Since this is the first game set in the world of Dragon Age, the team wanted to concentrate on a single player experience that would allow the players to learn the incredible history, story, and lore in the game.

so yeah, I think the future dragon age games are going to be multiplayer enabled. They are just trying to get us aquainted with the setting.

^^
fine then
i love RPGs so im sure im getting this, and since its bioware its going to be good.
is the final game going to have a mute character? cause Mass Effect was a step forward for WRPGs for having a speaking character.
i really hope so.

Oh yea, I am excited for this one. I'm not sure what type of sales to predict, it isn't getting much hype, but could have some great legs like Oblivion.

I can't wait for this game. The only complaint i have is the graphics look kinda crappy. I hope that they are showing console screens because i'm hoping for much better graphics out of the pc.
